Atmosphere - The Outernet Lyrics
[Slug]
For starters, I contemplated on where to split you
Marked a spot with a dotted line, then ripped you
Used careful procedure, if you listen closely
you can hear the ghostly moans of phobes bleeding through the speakers
Fucking up the solo juts and the ones that snuck their boys in
Like a free-for-all buffet when my team cultivates a crowd of loose heads
and boosted heads get called and all of them fall this way
Used to be on a mission to destroying emcees' existence
Now I'm tryna build so we can make this shit efficient
Strength is in the mind and strength is in the numbers
Too much sleep, then you slumber so we linked the bees and stung you
I brung you three times as much as your fucking idols brought to you
But since you know me locally, you dismissed me as an obstacle
Fuck it, Rhymesayers already got the twin cities locked
[Hook X2]
It's time to reach out, grab the nation and the earth
Let's see where your hearts at, let's put the outernet to work
[Chorus X2]
I spent my whole life working to get to the point that I'm at
So now I spend my time tryna reach my destination
I'll be at the end waiting with my crew for the rest of you
to arrive to shed the destitute mind state supplied by life
[Slug]
He said what? He's telling all of his boys that I can't rhyme
Then I guess the shit's a success if I'm even on his mind
He's doing what? Recording a project? Good, he should be
I'm not impressed, it's obvious y'all never understood me
I dwell in a land of ten thousand Hip Hop fans
And every fan thinks he's an emcee, heads are heavy but they're empty
I dwell in a land of twenty thousand emcees
But only half of them are head influenced, tense confusion stems
Damn, no need to worry about what the next man's doing
That's what keeps you from perceiving what I'm pursuing
Here's a clue and kill your demo, I'm tryna make history
on a bus full of empty seats, now who wants to sit with me?
In case you're unaware, we've been doing this forever
and ain't damn thing changed, financial status nor the weather
However, lack of cash reinforces passion
Fuck the rapping, man if I was wack, I'd promote "The Happenings"
[Hook X2]
The difference between the average head and an emcee is effort
Pick a side, either side, let's begin the network
[Chorus X2]
I spent my whole life working to get to the point that I'm at
So now I spend my time tryna reach my destination
I'll be at the end waiting with my crew for the rest of you
to arrive to shed the destitute mind state supplied by life
[Slug]
As an emcee, I run rhymes to distribute the fun times
As a lyricist, I promise to heat up your brain like sunshine
As an emcee, my goal is to make the whole show dope
As a lyricist, I wanna spit that shit that you can quote
As an emcee, I provoke my producer to stroke your spirit
So as a lyricist, I can't be choking on my lyrics
As an emcee, I know the key is originality
And as a lyricist, I command other emcees to respect me
That's it, respect, that's all, in fact the same respect
that I offer to you and your crew after y'all rip the set
I'm just a man, but I roll with others and we've got this plan
to let the voice expand across the tortured land
Education starts at home, six-one-two
From there we roam through headphones coming soon to your war zone
The aftermath, I'll have to plant some gems into your passive ass
Amped to cut trees and branches so ya'll would have a path
The more you feed it, the more it needs to consume
If you're coming through the region, hit me up, we'll rock a room
Let's network, let's work, let's all get work
So we can build the overall network
[Chorus X2]
I spent my whole life working to get to the point that I'm at
So now I spend my time tryna reach my destination
I'll be at the end waiting with my crew for the rest of you
to arrive to shed the destitute mind state supplied by life
[Outro X4]
Let's network, let's work, let's all get work
So we can build the overall network

'Til Tuesday - Voices Carry (Official Video) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uejh-bHa4To
Fuck it I’m going to visit Minnesota... this album took me there
Shit still bumping in 2019
Overcast! Why is it usually the case that a group or artists first album is usually fucking phenomenal.. not saying Atmospheres more recent shit isnt dope.. but its not for me. Overcast! has to be one of my top 3 albums.. fucking gem.
The Sickest FloW!!
He's hip hopin while just talkin.
This is a dope track 🔳,
If anyone got the time check out my music appreciate it 🌊.
Pure lyricism ... atmosphere forever
Mother fuck this song is so good
I can't wait to be in front of you. Ive been dreaming of it since I started dreaming
I love this album
Looking like old Haith boi
20 years old today!
the concept behind this song...... we are all connected
IMO I think the reason Slug doesn't like this album is because at this point he was transitioning from Battle Rapper into an actual Songwriter. If you've listen to this entire album there is a sense of arrogance but yet Slug has the ability to back up his bragging (Cyphers, Battles etc = mass experience). His craft has only gotten better and better as the years went by.
I met slug at a cd signing for the family sign in st cloud MN and I had like 7 atmosphere albums with me for them to sign and when he saw this album he "oh shit" lol
Matt O'Hearn Nice! It's good to see someone appreciating the music and actually supporting it. It's people like you keeping this shit alive. 👍
"the difference between an average head and emcee is EFFORT" godamn
This song perfectly describes my life...
ti albumara einai auth gamw ti zwh mou olh
"As an emcee, my goal is to make the whole show dope
As a lyricist, I wanna spit that shit that you can quote". This shit is the definition of skills.
Julio C. Dedication not just skills
You can know how smart a rapper is from the things he says. Slug is very smart.
@tentop10s That's because Minnesota is full of geniuses.
+tentop10s "I dwell in a land of a thousand MCs, heads are heavy but they're empty."
This is a super dark album
Listen to his group
Dynospectrum ;b
A lot farther along in the abyss, I'd say! Haha
along wit 7 day theory, its dark and hell is hot, dah shinin, double or nothing, e 1999 eternal, murder was the case ost, liquid swords, the psycho realm and the lost tapes/ overcast is one of my fav hip hop albums of all time
Glitternightlights lolol my favorite album tho
For starters i contemplated on where to splitcha.
Mark the spot with a dotted line and ripped ya.
Use careful procedure, if you listen closely you can hear the ghostly moans of foes bleeding through the speakers.
amazing lyrics
True that.
yes if we are not talking about Dynospectrum.
I find it weird that Slug claimed he was being too much of a try-hard wannabe rapper in this album when it seems like it was his birthright to pick up a mic.
What is the song that slug is dissing a graffiti artist?
this is the mind fuck album.
not if the answer is 'Always' (i.e. He always never ceases to amaze me.)
I was cleaning my apt and this song came on as "Track 15" and being a JAWS fan since birth, I had no idea what this song's name was...Since I found it, Ive made this my anthem for the next week. Epic
Yes, yes it is.
Im just a man, but i roll with others
and weve got this plan
to let the voice expand across the tortured land
education starts at home 612
from there we roam through headphones
comin soon to your warzone
the aftermath,
have to plant some gems into your passive ass
Ant to cut trees and branches
so y'all would have a path
the more you feed it, the more it needs to consume
if your comin through the reeds then hit me up
we'll rock a room
Love it when music does that
That's an insult btw.
i read this at the exact time he threw that rhyme...
.Lol same ( 5 years later)
foes not folks?
BOOM haha
beaut user name
that would be a fine beat :=
disagreeing for the sake of disagreeing is being a troll... good try with the "logic" though ;D have a great day!
You sound a lot more like a troll than him. :) And you know what troll means by your logic, you 'fuckin douchebag.'
thats what we call being a "troll" aka a fuckin douchebag
itunes ding dong :)
then second is god loves ugly... i miss spawn
fuck yea
lerkin the shadows at night
@Cprids yeah he did. what's your point?
@StaffandStormcloud he says "stung ya"
'to much sleep in your slumber so we linked the b's and stung ya'....
b's like music notes...
rediculous line
'now we roam through headphones, comin soon to your warzone'...
rediculous line
No doubt that this is his best album.
Slug actually says he doesn't like this album. The reason being is because he feels that he was trying to hard to be a rapper. and not staying in his style
one of the best tracks ive heard in a long time!
I've spent my whole life workin, to get to the point that im at, so now I spend my time , tryin to reach my destination I'll be at the end waiting with my crew for the rest of you to arrive shed the destitide mindstates applied by light
classic album
Best Atmosphere album in my opinion!
@KyplayaZ4lyfe Hahaha true
When doesnt Slug cease to amaze me
i love atmosphere
one of slugs best..5/5
